Disputes between neighbors and adjoining landowners concerning title, boundary lines, fences, landscaping, access and right to use, nuisance and more. In Los Angeles and throughout Southern California, it's not unusual for adjoining landowners to disagree over the location of a boundary line, or the obligation to maintain trees and landscaping or boundary line fencing.
This is especially true in neighborhoods, such as the Hollywood Hills, where there are many non-conforming, curve-linear lots. Not surprisingly, these disputes often spin out of control and escalate into nasty "little wars." Generally speaking, you can trim trees or shrubs that extend from your neighbor's property onto yours, as long as you don't damage the plants.

Jennifer is smart, sympathetic, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable about real estate issues. I'm so happy to have her on my team and I encourage everyone to find out for themselves how much she brings to the table as a lawyer and litigator. You always hope you won't need a lawyer, but if you do--JG is awesome.

I hired Ms. Gardner for her services and was very pleased with her help and knowledge for my case. Not only was she highly responsive but she communicated very well from beginning to end in our case. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a lawyer.

Jennifer and the team were amazing. They helped me through a very difficult and stressful situation. I would be glad to vouch for their responsiveness, professionalism, and knowledge. I hope you never need them, but if you do, I would highly recommend.

I hired Gardner + Associates to assist me with a potential small claims case. Jennifer had a lot of compassion for my situation and I could tell she really cared, which wasn't a vibe I got from other attorneys I had gotten quotes from. She also understood that I'm a small business and was willing to work with my relatively tight budget whereas some of the other attorneys were asking for very unrealistic fees in relation to my situation. Hopefully I never have to need another attorney, but if I do, I'll be coming back to Gardner + Associates.

What I appreciate most about is her honest and authentic counsel. She's straight forward and clear on her thoughts and actions. Very refreshing and competent. Highly skilled in her art of law. Someone I trust completely. Not always the case with lawyers. Thanks for your professionalism. Would definitely work with you again anytime.
